Gents, Any idea where to get the bushings for lower control arm in the picture? I am trying to get the info regarding the two main bushings not the one at the shock. I tried rockauto and mopar sites and couldn't get any info. The truck is a 2013 1500 2wd pentastar powered . Thanks in advance!

Easier & cheaper to replace the whole arm which is why you can't find just the bushings.
Labor on bushing replacement would exceed cost of a new arm.

understood. I thought that much but wasn't sure. Honestly it is the first time I see this; tho, like anyone that has worked on cars/trucks I had multiple times the though ... "I should've bought the entire thing rather than put so much time and effort in patching it" Nevertheless, Thank you!!

Yeah I see that now.
Seems the 2wd arms are more expensive than 4wd.
I'd avoid CARid for ordering anything unless you enjoy fighting for a refund.

I almost never buy any parts from them. My to go online store is rockauto or mopar websites for stuff I can't find on rockauto. I don't know any other place where to buy ram parts, if you know others please let me know ...I am fairly new to Ram. :)

I've had good luck with Amazon for almost everything I've done to my truck. Brakes, suspension, exhaust, lighting, etc.
I read reviews, compare prices/vendors, and always get exactly what I want.

I know and it makes sense I too buy from amazon lots of stuff; reviews are fine and useful for the most part, but the plethora of chinese garbage amazon sells is just annoying. Most times if I can buy from somewhere else even for a couple $ more, I'll head that way ...if for no other reason just to keep competition going. Old wisdom says that a good used part is more reliable than a new chinese made garbage altho too many oem parts are still made in china they are under stricter QA than Ji's basement "factory";)
